The main photo above shows Shunsuke celebrating with his teammates after his superb
free-kick had put Celtic 1:0 ahead in the Champions League match against Manchester Unite
on 21st November 2006. The Hoops held on for a memorable victory and that was enough
to see them qualify from the group stage for the first time.
The two inset pictures are also from the Manchester United game.
